- Ajith sarmaThiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), India269 contributionsAn architectural marvel with some marketing gimmicks.
Jatayu made of concrete. An ambi theater, a Ram temple, RAM's feet, some fun zone for kids and a cable car ride.
Entry fare is Rs 250 per head , but only in cash.
Then to go up another ~500 fir cable car , that can be paid by card. GPAY and other UPI not accepted.
The ride is great.
At the top, we can feel the smell of fresh air
Jatayu lies here.
A Ram temple also attracts tourists.
Be there by around 4.30 ,so you can also be a part of monkey feed as well as the beauty of dusk tooWritten 28 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - AckzelKochi (Cochin), India114 contributionsThe thangasherry beach with all the fishing boat coming in with their their catch is a wonderful sight to watch .

- akhilsebastian6 contributionsLocal people said that the falls is permanently closed due to the death of a few people.. Don't know, maybe they will open it in monsoon season.. Falls is located deep inside Achenkovil which is part of Konni reserve forest.. One thing need to be said..Most of the deaths in the falls is due to the utter negligence of the people..Even though Instructions and safety measures are given properly, they couldn't suppress their adrenal surge .... Thus they loose their lives.. See nature, feel nature but don't ever neglect the instructions given.. Be safe ..Written 7 June 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- chitra M55 contributionsWonderfully well maintained temple. The deities both Mahadeva and ganapathi gives one a divine feeling.. The numerous oil lamps on four sides of The temple walls is always an out of the world experience..
The crowd however could be more organised as to maintaining separate entry and exit lines.
Similarly the unniappam neivedyam prasadam seems to have, gone down on quality whereas it has increased triple times as to price... Will authorities take notice?Written 4 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - RAMKUMAR T49 contributionsTHE NEENDAKARA is well Known For Its fresh fish market and seafoods .

- anikarmdKaraikal, India26 contributionsWe once in a year visit Amma's amritapuri ashram apart from getting her darshan in Bangalore. Spirituality of place can't be explained it has to be experienced. So I prefer to share about humanity and hospitality there. All ashram volunteers are humble. Visitors can be of any language , there are volunteers to help visitors in their respective languages.
Accommodation is either at low/no cost. Food will be of Kerala flavour either it's of canteen one or ashram . For Maintenance in terms self-discipline, respect, clean and hygiene, i can rate 5+++... There is no direct airways or train. One can either reach Thiruvananthapuram or Kollam and from there one can get taxi or bus .
It's a marvelous experience, one has to experience it at least once on one's lifetime.Written 6 February 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - AnbuchelvanMadurai, India38 contributionsHuge crowd at the time of our visit and we really experienced a hard process for parking my car.

- Joji JKochi (Cochin), India3,104 contributionsThe Our Lady of Purification or Kollam Port Church is believed to be one among the Ezhara Palli established by St. Thomas. The first and few other churches were destroyed in sea erosion and the present church was built in 1993, foundation stone laid by HH Pope John Paul II in 1986. The Church is big and well designed by the side of the sea and is almost a pilgrim center. In the year 1984 when I went there for the first time, it was even difficult for the auto driver to locate the church but now it has become popular. Last year after the floods I have been to the church and being a Sunday the church was crowded. Lot of people irrespective of religion visit the church to offer prayers.Written 25 May 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
